Common Applications

Chefs Own Instant Cream Soup Base works as a direct replacement for scratch cream soup in nearly any recipe calling for a cream of mushroom, cream of chicken, or cream of celery style liquid. Adjust the water ratio to shift from soup consistency to a thicker sauce for casseroles and baked dishes. For buffet service, prepare the base and fold in roasted vegetables, cooked proteins, or starches just before service to maintain texture and presentation. The base also functions as a velouté style starting point for house made cream sauces when reduced slightly and finished with butter, herbs, or cheese.

Preparation & Use

Whisk the desired amount of base into hot water, adjusting the ratio to match the target consistency. For standard cream soup, follow the manufacturer recommended water to base ratio printed on the container. For a thicker sauce or casserole binder, reduce the water by roughly 25 percent. Stir until fully dissolved and bring to a brief simmer. Add seasonings, proteins, vegetables, or starches as the menu dictates. Prepared soup can be held on a steam table; stir periodically to maintain even texture.
